1) We’ve added personnel to support Ezra and Jayson, which means Rails (Ezra) and sys admin / cluster / networking (Jayson). The new people are David and Toshio, respectively. They’ll help us pursue internal objectives and provide increased customer service as they come up to speed. We’re very happy to have them as the newest members of the Engine Yard team.

2) We are working with more UK/London-based customers these days, so we’re investigating the specifics of setting up a cluster in London. We’ve received input from several UK customers and we very much appreciate this type of local knowledge. If you have any info about good data centers and support services in the area, please let us know. Thanks.
